Islam is the blazing fire that burns up our life and consuming our
false deities presents the sacrifice of our life and our property and
our honour to our Holy God. Entering it we drink the water of a new
life and all our spiritual faculties establish such a relationship with
God as subsists between kindred. A fire leaps up from our inside like
lightning and another fire descends upon us from above. By the meeting
of these two flames all our passions and out love for anything beside
God are totally consumed and we become dead vis-a-vis our previous life.
This condition is named Islam in the Holy Quran.
